Features & Capabilities

ActivityWatch Web Watcher Plus records the currently active browser tab and sends ActivityWatch-compatible web.tab.current events to an ActivityWatch server.

The extension is designed for people who want to self-host their own activity tracking workflow and choose their own server endpoint inside the extension settings.

Main features:

Records the active tab URL and page title
Also sends tab metadata such as audible state, incognito state, and tab count
Lets the user configure the ActivityWatch server URL from the extension settings page
Uses the standard ActivityWatch event format for compatibility with existing ActivityWatch deployments

This extension is intended for personal, self-hosted, or internal use with an ActivityWatch server controlled by the user. It does not require a third-party account, paid subscription, or external hardware.

Users should review their own ActivityWatch server setup and data retention practices before using the extension, especially if the configured server is remote.

Is ActivityWatch Web Watcher Plus Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

ActivityWatch Web Watcher Plus requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

ActivityWatch Web Watcher Plus is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
